Quick Search

The Quick Search feature is only available when the Enhanced UI is enabled.

The Quick Search bar is available in the page header. You can use this functionality to find pages, students, staff, and contacts. Quick Search is recommended for simple searches, such as looking for a particular person or page, and will not affect your student, staff, or contact selection.

Pages, students, staff, and contacts are all searchable using different information. The following chart lists what information can be used.

What appears in the search results depends on your settings at the district level, security group level, and personal settings level, as well as your access to certain information. For example, you can only find a student's legal name or State Student Number if you have access to this information.

Edit District Settings

If you have access, you can adjust the Quick Search settings for your district. Users in the district can adjust their personal settings to be more restrictive, but they cannot enable fields disabled at the district level. These disabled fields are hidden from the user.
